Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe goal of this specification is to promote proper design and manufacturing practices forselectorized

3、 strength equipment. Through these specifications, this specification aims to assistdesigners and manufacturers in producing functional, safe machines under proper operations. Theequipment user must recognize, however, that a standard alone will not necessarily prevent injuries.Like other physical a

4、ctivities, exercise involving selectorized strength training equipment involves therisk of injury, particularly if the equipment is used improperly.The goal of this specification is to promote proper design and manufacturing practices forselectorized strength training equipment. Through these specif

5、ications, this specification aims to assistdesigners and manufactures in reducing the possibility of injury when these products are used inaccordance with the operational instructions.The equipment user must recognize, however, that a standard alone will not necessarily preventinjuries. Like other p

6、hysical activities, exercise involving selectorized strength training equipmentinvolves the risk of injury, particularly if the equipment is used improperly or not properly maintained.In addition, users with physical limitations should seek medical advice and instruction from the fitnessfacility pri
